Sells would mean the people owns it. In this xase the EULA is clear, you are renting the game...

You aren't wrong, that's why I use Goldberg/steamless to keep my library of steam games safe, even if steam shits the bed

The way I understand about this stack is that it still relies on steam architecture under the hood. So emulation of the steam client to run the game is what has to occur?

More likely it has to run the bit of the client that handles DRM calls.
